Show HN: VoxThermic – A macOS journaling app that uses Apple's Foundation Modelshttps://voxthermic.jbri.workers.dev/TL;DR version: I made a macOS journaling app that use Foundation Models to analyze entries for mood + written themes, and also has voice transcription, because I couldn't find any other journaling app that does those things.OK, now for the longer, I-rambled-too-much version:For the past few weeks I've been working on a macOS journaling app called VoxThermic.The idea for it came from my own journaling habits, where my mood tends to shift a lot depending on whatever I'm dealing with. I've tried some journaling apps, but I've never found one that can analyze mood or see how my mood changes depending on what I'm writing about.So I just figured I'd build it myself. I've been experimenting a lot with Apple's Foundation Models and Natural Language frameworks, and those all work on-device and offline (which is good because there's no way I'm sending journal entries to some AI company's data centers!)But there's one problem with using Foundation Models: they're tiny.
